yo i sticked my voodoo3 card back in the win98 box to play CS, and the nvidia back to the linux box, man i'm impressed ! the nvidia actually works better under linux ! where CS crashed non stop with it .
but tell me , the TV-out does it work under all resolutions/frequencies ? i'll be surprised if it does ! so does it ?

peace and grutz
